If I enter a buffer, do `M-x latex-mode',
then M-: (concat (symbol-name major-mode) "-map")
it returns "latex-mode-map". What did you want?

That's the name of a symbol whose value is the latex mode keymap. If you want
the keymap itself, then you want this:

(symbol-value ; Value of
 (intern      ; Symbol whose name is
  (concat (symbol-name major-mode) "-map")))

However, (current-local-map) gives you the same thing, and it works regardless
of the name of the symbol.

(eq (symbol-value
     (intern
      (concat (symbol-name major-mode) "-map")))
    (current-local-map))
